Reworking Humanhood’s ZERO

In 2016 I composed the music for Humanhood’s ZERO which premiered at mac Birmingham and subsequently toured Midlands venues last year. The company have been commissioned by The Movement: Sadler’s Wells, The Lowry and Birmingham Hippodrome to present a 15 min excerpt of ZERO as part of Dance: Sampled, a showcase event presenting a diverse selection of dance from national and international companies.

We’ve been working with musician Xhosa Cole, a quartet of fantastic string players and cellist Gyda Valtysdottir to record new string material that I have been incorporating into the original track. In addition to a remixed music score, the final section of ZERO is being reworked with new lighting design, new costumes and new choreography.
